  1. I have a Burton Alp 71 with an edge high concave base, i.e. about 1mm.  I doubt I can take enough off of the edges to get it flat.  How important is that?  Filling the concavity with wax and scraping across the edges might make it flat for a few runs or more, right?

  2. Reading the article about keeping ze-knees apart really struck a chord with me.  I remember giving up carving about ten years ago for several reasons and not being able to carve on bumpy and steeper terrain was one of them.  I had found a sweet spot in an upright position but it was useless when steeper and/or irregular runs were encountered.  I now have to go back to the drawing board and learn how to get down and dirty with some shock absorbers in my bag of tricks.  Thanks again.

  3. Are the designs/shapes, dimensions of the old blue Rossi, Maverick Purecarve and Swoard Extreme Carve boards similar for a given length?

    What angles are the extreme carvers using on their 21 & up cm wide boards, i.e. 60/55 or?  The description info says they use wider boards so they can run smaller angles.
